AFP: Volunteer hotline saves desperate migrants from the Med

“The NGO also keeps track of rights violations, mapping their location. It states its ultimate goal as “contributing to ending the deaths of migrants at sea and promoting an alternative vision for the Mediterranean”.

🆘 from ~37 people in distress south of #Crete, #Greece

We are in contact with the group, who report they have no fuel left and water is in the boat. We have alerted the respective authorities and urge @HCoastguard to rescue the people now to a safe place in Europe!

🆘 Where are they? 31 people missing at sea since Friday evening.

We have informed authorities but do not have a clear location of the boat. We fear another invisible #shipwreck in the central Mediterranean. We stand with the relatives and demand #SafePassage!
